It's in Chicago ,
Call me crazy but I'm gonna hope for the best . I'll send you guys more details. For the Houston samba guys feel free to swing by my place next week . Any more info anyone has on this mystery machine chime in. Hoping to drive it when it's up within a 10m radius of my house . Small family trips nothing crazy .
